people say nevada, the president won nevada by 12% four years ago. this time his early voting is smaller. there is a need to win by 12%. he only needs to win by one vote. >> when you talk about you're going through the swing states, really it's the state of ohio. is that true all roads go through ohio for the romney campaign? >> yeah. it's really critical there. you look at the different scenarios you need again for mitt romney to take ohio, there are scenarios that we'll show you. he can win without ohio. but that takes everything else. that means he has to get florida. he has to get everything else basically that is leaning or tossup to make that happen. >> what i thought was interesting, we were talking about this earlier, i read an article where ana is credited on it. it's a latino vote in ohio that you never talk about. this election is so close that we are talking about latinos in ohio. and how they could potentially impact this vote. >> i say is that if we really want to get immigration done, some of us have to take it for the cause, put on co

the obama campaign is extremely confident because of the latino vote, about nevada. now you're in this position here. can governor romney get there? can he get there without, even if he won colorado, even if he won iowa, and even if he won new hampshire, he's short. what would he have to do? that's the pennsylvania strategy you were just thinking about. he would have to take that away and turn it red. that would make the difference, but it's improbable. the deep blue dna of pennsylvania makes that somewhat improbable. which is why we're going to spend a long time tonight, late campaign polling is not always what happens on election day. i talk to some people in hamilton county, ohio, to cincinnati, they were much more encouraged today than they were last night. if that one is blue at the end of the night, it's not impossible, but it is improbable, i would say, to find a romney path to 270. >> in the past, as we say often, no republican has won the white house without ohio. anderson? >> i just want to quickly check in with our analyst, about what peter hamby just repo

you look at nevada, for example. 11.8% unemployment. look at colorado. it has 8% unemployment. you look at some of the other swing states where the unemployment rate has been drifting lower. ohio, for example, a very big, important state on tuesday. 7% unemployment. and when you look at ohio's jobless rate you can see that it has been coming down a little bit, and the polls, john weigh in on the polls, the polls are so interesting because the most recent poll that we have the cnn/orc poll, shows obama with a little bit of a lead over romney. >> most of the polls in ohio show consistently the president between two and four points. ohio is interesting. the unemployment there below the rest of the country. so the economic argument in ohio hasn't been about good economy/bad economy. they kind of microtargeted which is why the romney campaign focused on the issue of coal for instance. hitting the issue of coal hard. >> and the microtargeting is so interesting because every state is different. it has a different economic fingerprint, if you will. if you look at florida, where housing
